Miss Otis regrets
Miss Otis regrets
She's unable to lunch today, madam
Miss Otis regrets
She's unable to lunch today
She is so sorry to be delayed
For last evening down in lover's lane
She strayed, madam
Miss Otis regrets
She's unable to lunch today
When she woke up from her dream
And she found her love had gone, madam
She ran to the man
Who had led her so far, astray
And from under her velvet gown
She drew a gun
And shot that lover down, madam
Miss Otis regrets
She's unable to lunch today
When the mob came, and they got her, hey!
They dragged her from the jail, madam
They strung her up on the willow, across the way
And the moment, just before she died
She lifted up her lovely head, and she cried, madam
Miss Otis regrets
She's unable to lunch today
